When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is the one who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, choses rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who truly cares... The test of true friendship is measured not in the happy times when chatter and the mutual sharing of good times occurs; rather it is in those times when they stand shoulder to shoulder with you, when the silence between you exchanges more in a few moments than can be said in a lifetime. It is in the hug they share with you when times are hard, the warmth of which dismisses the chill of adversity. There are so many folks out there who have no friends around them... who have no one to turn to in times of need. In a crowd of millions they suffer loneliness and despair, while the world walks on by. My friends, share the warmth of your smile and the kindness in your hearts today. Be the good neighbour, the good Samaritan, and show the world that humanity has a soul and can care. Have a caring, sharing and happy day today and help others have the same? Happy Monday! :o)...
